"Velshi" on MSNBC @velshimsnbc.bsky.social

America has had “50 years in which we did not make the right decisions” economically, says @rbreich.bsky.social‬. ‘Trickle-down economics is a hoax’ #Velshi

Trickle down economics was disproven shortly after it came out. Why are people continually surprised that it's just another face of fraud?

Money makes money. It's a hill - whichever side you're on, the ball naturally rolls that way; debt becomes more debt, wealth becomes more wealth. I don't know why we ever bought into the idea that "let rich people become richer and have fewer restrictions" would help alleviate inequality.

@velshi.com so appreciate the way you replace the greasy orange mug shots with dark profile silhouettes or rear view balding head combover photos. So much less traumatizing for audience than the frontal visage view. Thank you!

the natural progression of how greed works. When allowed. The decisions weren't effectively made by the citizen, as much as a few wealthy elites have.

It's not a "hoax", it's a "long con", run by the 2nd most successful con artists in the history of #AmeriKKKa.

It's not that trickle down economics didn't work, it's that it was allowed to continue unabated for 40 years. Now we're surprised the benefactors own everything.
